BAKE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO: Thanks for your visit and kind comment! I don't know why my tops are smoother, but I have the impression that it is because my bagels are made without a starter... If you ever make my recips, please, tell me how you found it!

I LOVE Bagels!! Especially with cream cheese, either just cream cheese or cream cheese with smoked salmon and maybe some capers. Yum! I've never tried making my own, but you are definitely inspiring me to do so. Yours look wonderful! :)

LANNAE: Thanks for the very kind comment and for passing by! I'm very happy to hear that you like my site and I thank you for adding me to your list of favorite blogs!!!...

CHRISTINE: Thanks for your visit and nice comment, Christine! Yes, bagels are pretty much delicious with any savory filling...

SUSAN: Thanks for you comment, Susan! You should try this recipe... Regarding the meme, there's no problem! I can understand your reasons.

PAZ: Thanks, Paz! You know, it's not all that complicated! You should try baking a batch at home, nothing quite compares to homemade bread... Here, we don't have any store selling them, so I have to make my own.

BEAH: Je ne peux que t'encourager! Merci pour ta visite...
